Jeremy Knowles

Please Note I currently offer in person therapy only at my home address in South Woodchester and at Ownzone therapy rooms in Stroud town centre.

I currently have both online and in person availability on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays 9.15am - 4.30pm. My day time 50 minute session rates are £65. 

I also offer some evening slots 7.30pm - 9.30pm. These are charged at £75. 

Some concessionary / low cost sessions are available. If fees are a barrier to your accessing therapy I am happy to discuss my rates.

The reasons for seeking therapy are many. I am a strong believer in our ability as individuals to change how we feel, think and react to the situations we find ourselves in and which may be causing us difficulty. I see my role as a therapist as a facilitator, allowing a client to learn about themselves, their relationships and their behaviours.

My aim is to provide an open, non-judgmental, empathic space to allow you to explore whatever it is that brings you to therapy. 

I trained as an Integrative Therapist and am a Qualified Counsellor.

I am a level 2 Internal Family Systems Therapist with the IFS Institute

I find the Internal Family Systems model (IFS) to be a particularly powerful way of working and have a developing interest in working with Older Adults, Trauma and ADHD. I draw primarily on Person Centred, Psychodynamic and Existential Psychotherapy theories for my Integrative work.

I have experience of working with a broad range of issues  including Addiction, ADHD, Alcohol Use, Anger Management, Anxiety, Bereavement, Depression, Divorce, Domestic Abuse, Drug Abuse, Eating Disorders, Gambling, Hoarding, Internet Addiction, Men's Issues, Parenting, Relationship Issues, School Issues, Self Esteem, Sexual Abuse, Sexual Addiction, Sleep or Insomnia, Stress, Trauma and PTSD.

I am happy to have an initial phone conversation before you book an introductory session.

Prior to our introductory session you will be sent a copy of my terms and conditions.

Should we decide to work together I will normally ask you to commit to attending a minimum of six sessions at which point we can discuss taking the work further if this is relevant. 

I tend to work with clients long term but this is not a requirement for entering therapy and it may be that what brings you here only requires short term work. I am happy to work with clients on this basis.
